Publix Partners FAQ

All accredited schools offering education for any combination of grades K – 12 are eligible. Any group within an eligible school can set up its own program as well. So, if the band is looking for extra fundraising opportunities or the debate club needs to raise money for a competition, Publix Partners can help.

A percentage of each transaction made using a Publix Partners card is allocated to that participating school. Publix Partners' schools receive checks up to four times per year based on earnings they accumulate from the purchases you make at Publix.

All transactions you make using your Publix Partners card help your school, with the exception of lottery and money order purchases.

Publix Partners is available in select counties in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee.

Any Publix shopper that chooses to use a Publix Partners card assigned to a participating school is actively helping support local schools. Obtain the card from your participating school and use it every time you shop at Publix.

Spread the word among your school community and have everyone reach out to friends and family. The greater the participation, the greater the rewards for your school.

Family and friends who shop at Publix in South Carolina, Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama, or Tennessee can also link their card to your school.

If your school is enrolled as a partner, ask your school representatives for a card.

Your school representative should be able to give you a replacement card. You may also ask a Customer Service associate if they have one on file (select stores only).

If you don't use your card during a specific transaction, unfortunately you won't be able to get credit for it on a future visit.

For every $37,500 spent cumulatively by your school's participants, Publix will award your school $250. There is no limit to the amount of earnings a school can receive.

Once the school has at least $250 in earnings, a check will be sent to the school and they decide how best to put it to use.

If your school doesn't achieve a $250 payment in a quarter, any credit will be carried over to the next quarter.

Publix Partners supports schools all year long, so whenever you shop at Publix purchases help your school.

Your school chooses how to use the money. Whether it's computers or microscopes, art supplies or sports equipment that your school needs, Publix Partners can help.
